    The hu tiu nam vang was delicious and super fresh! Everything was packed with authentic Vietnamese flavors, generous portions, and lots of fresh herbs and toppings. The noodles were flavorful, the meat, liver, heart, shrimp was tender, and the dipping sauce was perfect. Definitely a great spot when you're craving Vietnamese comfort food. Highly recommend! It was 10am but the restaurant is fullhouse, service a bit slow but it is not a big deal, since the food is delicious

    Bun Mam! Was very good, the owner and servers were very friendly.

    Support this family business! I need more people to know this place. They actually put their heart in the dish. Ingredients are fresh and homemade, tasty and yummy - Food: I ordered bun mam- their signature dish, and chicken wings ( just to support the restaurant tbh because we know it's too much to finish) and both are good! - Service: Love the hospitality from staff ( assume he's the owner) - Ambiance: Clean, new and organized! I'll def come back

    I'm a big fan of Bún mắm , always on the lookout for a place that serves it well to satisfy my cravings. I've tried many spots, and so far, this is the one I'm most satisfied with. The broth is aromatic with lemongrass and full of rich flavor. I especially enjoyed the little bowl of tamarind fish sauce for dipping the toppings, it reminded me of the style from my hometown. The seasoning was just right for me. The vegetable platter was generous, fresh, and had a nice variety. Service was a bit slow since there was only one young man that day and the restaurant was quite busy. Still, he was very enthusiastic and attentive, which made up for it. There's plenty of parking in front of the restaurant, when I visited

    Bun Mam

    My dad got this to go so I cant really speak about service or ambiance but the bun mam was fire. The broth was fragrant, full bodied, and full of umami. They gave us so much of the toppings so protein lovers and nutritionists will like this one. The only thing holding back is that we wish there was a bit more broth. The ratio of contents to broth is slightly off. Other than that, actual flavor bomb

    First time we here we tried the Bún mắm, and it was so good, so we return again. This time we decided to try the Bún mang vịt and bánh canh, and they were both delicious. This cozy little place does not disappoint. Bonus , I love the fact that they have everything you need at your table. Straws , chopsticks , dipping plate, napkins . Yes, the obvious but I don't understand why some restaurants don't do it. I hate asking for extra napkins. Staff was attentive and quick. Definitely will return again.

    My beautiful big bowl of soup. I requested no fish, otherwise this dish will include fish.

    We went on a weekday around 10:30am and the restaurant was only had one table occupied. That's how I like it. We decided we try the bun mam based on yelp's reviews. I will give 5 stars for this dish. I can tell the ingredients they used were fresh from the herbs plate to the seafood topping. The taste was great, not too sweet and did not smell fishy. Service was great and free hot tea is a plus for me. Parking is plenty during weekday. Will be back to try other items on the menu

    Bun Mam

    The bun mam here is packed with rich, authentic flavors, and the bowl comes loaded with generous, high-quality toppings. Here, finding a really good bowl of bun mam isn't easy, but this place definitely of the best. The broth is flavorful without being overwhelming, the toppings are fresh and plentiful, and every bite feels satisfying. Definitely one of those hidden gems that's worth coming back to!

    5 stars for the bun mam. Probably one of the best bun mam in OC. Lots of fresh veggies (like 6 different kinds) and lots of toppings (shrimp, fish, squid, fish cake, pork belly, eggplant). Some reviewers said the broth is a little sweet for them, but I thought it was perfect. Very flavorful and not sweet at all for me. Other places make it so salty. Portion is huge. Price is reasonable. Iced tea is free and good strong flavor.

    My new fave spot for Bun Mam. Super clean, nice waiters and the food is great! The bun mam broth is so delicious, not too salty or sweet..just the perfect amount of fermented fish and you can the lemongrass. The toppings are good. Highly recommend if you want to try bun mam. Will be sending my friends and fam here :)

    Follow the food group comment , come here to try Bun mām. Nice service, small& clean restaurant. Bun mām was great ( the taste as people of western Vietnam) If you fan of Mãm stop by try here , the soup not very salty as some of the other restaurants. I will be back to try another item in here.

    Bun mam and bun mang vit is decent. Bun mam has lighter broth, closer to bun nuoc leo with very generous topping and good veggies.

    Stopped by around 8:45 PM, and even that late the restaurant was still busy. The parking lot is on…read morethe smaller side, so finding a spot takes a bit of luck. The wait was about 30 minutes to get our food, which says a lot about how popular this place is. Inside, the atmosphere was lively. K-pop music videos played on the big screen creating a fun, energetic vibe. It was definitely on the louder side, but it fit the setting and made the restaurant feel upbeat. We ordered the Original, Soy Garlic, and the limited edition Feel Good Crunch. The Original had a light, crispy coating but still a good flavor, while the Soy Garlic was my favorite of the bunch. The sauce has a nice balance of sweet and savory flavors while still having a chicken with crunch. If you're a Stray Kids fan, you'll be happy to know the Feel Good Crunch meal was inspired by Felix, which is a fun touch that makes this flavor a little more unique. One thing that sets this location apart is that it's the only one that serves Corn Cheese, which is absolutely worth ordering. Overall, the atmosphere is fun, the chicken is consistently good, and having menu items that aren't available at other locations makes this spot worth the visit.

    Haven't been here in a while and it still hits…read more I got here late (7pm they close 8pm) and they were sold out of most things but I got brisket and short rib with that colossal bone. After trying the neighboring new bbq spot I won't name.. this places brisket is so much better. I love it here, juicy and great flavor. Some fatty bits but that's where the flavor comes from. and this short rib was bomb! The edges were a bit dry but I'm coming at closing time so I get it. FYI short rib is by weight $40/lb so it was about $50 for it. The sides I got were their macaroni and cheese 10/10 tastes home made! Onion rings were ok. Coleslaw is alright. Good for fiber! lol. I do like their beans and the blueberry bread. I love their nachos but they ran out of nacho cheese. Sad! I gota come back!

This young man was arguing with me over the phone over the brisket sandwich combo and the 2 piece chicken quarter meal.

This was EXTREMELY disrespectful and lazy on Jason's part. He needs to find a new industry to work in as customer service is not his specialty. Jason, shame on you. Thank you, Joey

    I found this restaurant when I was in Northern California and last night I was craving wings so I…read moresearched all over to find some wings and everywhere is very expensive so my brain said what about that place called Bonchon that I had in Northern California and as well over by Magic Mountain. Well I was super happy to see that there was one near my hotel while I was staying in Orange County. I ordered it online and picked it up. When I walked into the restaurant, it seemed very clean very few customers, but overall the staff was friendly and I was in and out pretty quick. :-) Problem my head was when I got back to my hotel there was no napkins or fork. Otherwise, the food itself was delicious as always. You can get the mixed box like I do and be extremely full. I do highly recommend getting their donut, which is absolutely amazing as well.

    Rating is not for the food (I've had bonchon at various other locations multiple times so I know…read morethey are usually consistent) but for the service. Called in for an order around 6:30 PM in the evening -- they took down my name and plan was for me to pay at the time of pick up. Got there an hour later (which should be plenty of time considering it was not super crowded) and I'm met with confusion -- apparently they didn't have my order ready so someone at the counter went to the back kitchen. 10 minutes later she comes back, my husband goes to pay and we are told by the young man at the register "oh you're good" as in it's already paid for (which we clearly had not). We looked through the receipt and realized the order they gave us was the wrong order but this other customer shared the same first name. Other locations have asked me for the last 4 of my phone at the time of confirmation to avoid this. It was close to 8 PM at this point and I was so fed up with having to potentially wait for another 20 minutes (assuming my order will not be mixed up again) for them to prepare the food again and being pregnant I just opted to cancel my order and take my business elsewhere because I was so hungry at that point I honestly would have not been able to tolerate another mix up with my food. They offered to take my husband's number to have their manager reach out to discuss the situation but we have yet to hear from them.
